Keller Williams Kids CD - A Review and a Giveaway! (Giveaway Closed)

As the mother of a toddler, I’m always looking for music that makes both of us happy.  So one thing that I have learned to do is keep my eye out for artists I like who make a children’s CD.  That’s why I was thrilled to learn that Keller Williams had come out with a children’s CD.  I love the quirky humor that is in his songs, and I just knew that would translate well into children’s music.  
A true original, Keller Williams has already won the hearts and imaginations of a seething tide of young adults who are musically “in the know.” With Kids, Keller creates a style of family music that’s all his own, taking influences ranging from traditional bluegrass and rock to Robin Williams and Bobby McFerrin, and transporting them to warp level.
We listened to the entire CD on a trip from the In-Laws to our house.  Not only did Little Miss like the music, but my husband was laughing and humming along the whole time as well!  The album has a blue-grass feel to it, and you can tell that Williams doesn't take himself too seriously.  
In “Taking A Bath”, he talks about how taking a bath gets the stink off of his feet.  I can appreciate this song, since bath time is not always a happy time for us.  Now we have a fun song to sing on the way to the tub!


Another favorite is “Car Seat”, which would be great for any child who doesn’t want to get into their seat.  It transforms the car seat into a rocket ship, and has an amzingly catchy tune.  

John Denver fans will love his cover of “Grandma’s Feather Bed”.  He totally makes this song his own, giving it a fresh and funky kind of feel.  




EVERYONE can get a free download of Car Seat at Keller William’s website here.  
You can buy the album at his store here (he has a lot of great specials going on right now), or from Amazon here - Kids.


WIN IT! Keller Williams has graciously offered to send this CD to one of my readers for free!

Puff, the Magic Dragon is my favorite children's song. We use to have a 45 rpm record that had 4 dragon songs on it....the other one I remember is the Dragon with a Cold in his Nose. LOL.

Boom Boom (Ain't It Great to be Crazy?) is extremely popular in our house. We can't help laughing when we sing it. It's my favorite.
